Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation

A Ghost immobiliser protects your vehicle against key hacking and cloning. It also helps prevent door lock picking. It uses the buttons that are factory-installed on your vehicle (such as the steering wheel control, the centre console and door panel) to create a unique pin code that you can push.

It is virtually impossible to predict this sequence, and the vehicle is not able to start. It also prevents signal jamming and device spoofing.

No Key Fobs or LED Signs

Car theft is a massive problem with many thieves targeting vehicles that are keyless. If they are able to intercept the signal from your vehicle keys, or even copy your key fob, they can use it to start your vehicle and then take off with it. This is why it's a great idea to get an immobiliser installed to your vehicle or van. It's an easy device that prevents the engine from running without the use of a key or immobiliser code. There are several different types of immobilisers available. Some immobilisers are designed to be hidden inside your vehicle, while others are weatherproof. They can be put in in a more visible place.

One of the best and most popular kinds is a Ghost Immobiliser. It's an immobiliser that is weatherproof and connects to the CAN network of your vehicle. It works in a similar manner like your key fob, however it doesn't have any LED indications or even a button on your steering wheel to give away its presence. It is hidden inside your vehicle or van and is in direct communication with the ECU.

It also isn't pickable by any diagnostic tool for vehicles and will block your vehicle from starting until the correct PIN code is entered. The system is also tamperproof, which means it is impossible for thieves to take away or alter the ghost device.

The Ghost Immobiliser is a great solution as it protects your car or van from hacking, key cloning and key theft. This is done using a pin code that you alone know. You can select your own sequence of disarming and it can be as short or as long as you want. You then enter this into the Ghost app on your phone whenever you're planning to drive. The system can be transferred to a different vehicle if you move in the course of ownership.

The majority of these systems are connected to the OBD port to allow it to recognize your key or fob. Hi-tech thieves, however, have found ways to hack these systems and then start the vehicle, even if the key is not present. This is the reason it's suggested that you get an immobiliser with ghosts installed. The device can stop your Mercedes from starting unless an appropriate PIN code is entered. This can be set by you, and is only known to you and your installer.

No OBD Port Hacking

The ghost immobiliser stops your car from starting without the correct pin code. It is designed to safeguard your vehicle from key cloning and other typical types of theft.

Contrary to other security systems which include LED indicators or key-fobs, ghost immobilisers are snoopy and operate in a silent manner using the CAN data network. This means that thieves are unable to detect the presence of a ghost immobiliser even if they're using advanced RF scanning and code grabbing technology.

The device is in the engine bay, and is connected to the ECU (Engine Control Unit). It connects with the buttons that are factory-installed in your vehicle, and allows you to create an unique button sequence to start your car. This can be entered via the steering wheel as well as the door ghost immobiliser and tracker panels, as well as the centre console. It can be changed at any time and can include up to 20 numbers in the PIN.

Modern vehicles are flooded with CAN bus information, which means that thieves are able to use various methods to break into your car and disable security systems. One of them is the OBD (On Board Diagnostics) port. With the right tools, thieves are able to access the OBD port on your vehicle and use a laptop in order to deactivate your car's alarm and code a new key then drive away. This hack is very efficient and can be done in minutes.

The Autowatch Ghost immobiliser stops this by communicating with the ECU via the CAN data network. This is not detected by vehicle diagnostics, and there are no radio signals, which makes it virtually impossible for thieves to find and alter the system. In addition the ghost is resistant to jamming devices that can be used to block other security systems in your vehicle.

Another excellent feature of the ghost is the ability to enter it into Service mode, enabling you to turn your vehicle over to valet parking or service without giving anyone keys or buttons. The ghost will then leave Service mode according to speed and duration or by entering the pin code you've set up. This is an excellent way to protect your car from high-tech car thieves at work or on vacation.

No Key Theft

The ghost 2 immobiliser is a CAN bus device which means it is part of the vehicles CAN data network meaning it cannot be identified by any diagnostic tool that thieves use to scan and hack into modern vehicles. It does not transmit any radio signals, like the tracker, which means it cannot be detected by anyone other than you or your trained installer.

Unlike other car security systems which rely on LEDs or key fobs, the Ghost immobiliser makes use of the buttons in your vehicle (either the steering wheel or the dashboard, or door locks) to create a unique disarm sequence you decide to use. This sequence can be set to any length you wish and must be entered before the J can be driven.

You can change your PIN at any time, making sure that even if you give someone else your keys or forget your own PIN for a few hours or so, your vehicle is still safe. This is particularly useful when you drop your vehicle off for cleaning or maintenance or to take it to a local garage for repairs. You can still drive your car without worrying about a thief stealing it.

The thief-proofing technology in the Ghost device is a true game changer and makes it an excellent alternative to traditional physical deterrents like the locking of a steering wheel or wheel clamp. The fact that it doesn't depend on any external components or emit any signals makes it more difficult to break than any other immobiliser system currently available.

We don't recommend altering your CAN data wiring in any way. This is why it is essential to make sure that the installation is done by a certified TASSA Registered Ghost Installations team. Our team is highly qualified and insured. This will give you peace of mind knowing your Ghost Car Security system will be a genuine Tassa approved product.

No Key Cloning

The Ghost 2 is the latest immobiliser that secures your Lexus. It protects against key-cloning hackers and theft. It creates a discrete pin code push sequence that uses the original buttons of your vehicle. Only you are able to start your car. The system is completely hidden, sealed and tucked in the vehicle harness and is therefore inaccessible to thieves. If a thief did manage to gain access they would be unable to driving away based on speed or entering the PIN code. You can also put the car into service mode to temporarily start and drive your car. This can be accomplished using the app or a Bluetooth tag that is sold separately. It is also able to be removed at any point.

Key cloning online is widespread and allows thieves to steal cars without having the original keys. Installing an immobiliser is essential particularly if your vehicle is costly.

Ghost immobilisers differ from the factory immobiliser you get with your vehicle. The standard factory-fitted immobilisers utilize chips inside the ECU to communicate with a fob or key and then start the car. A ghost immobiliser adds an additional layer of vehicle's security, making it impossible for the engine to start without entering a unique pin number or code. This also prevents hacking devices, device spoofing, and signal jamming. These are all methods that could be used to unlock a regular factory fitted immobiliser.

The greatest benefit of ghost immobilisers is that it is nearly impossible to hack or bypass. This is because the ghost immobiliser is linked to CAN bus and operates in a manner that isn't visible to thieves. This is an enormous benefit because it means that a car that has been stolen will not be able to be driven away again as it will not be able to start.

This also stops a car from being towd away because the Ghost will automatically lock once it has an 0mph trigger speed. This is another great benefit since it stops thieves from being able to remove the ghost immobiliser fitter, and then tow your vehicle away.
